http://mmajunkie.comFormer UFC heavyweight champion and current top contender Cain Velasquez (10-1 MMA, 8-1 UFC) will host a special question-and-answer session for UFC Fight Club members prior to weigh-ins for UFC 152.

UFC officials on Wednesday announced the session, which takes place Sept. 21 at Toronto’s Mattamy Athletic Centre at The Gardens, formerly Maple Leaf Gardens.

Doors for the event open for UFC Fight Club members at 1 p.m. ET. The fan Q&A session begins one hour later at 2 p.m. and is followed by the official weigh-ins for UFC 152 at 4 p.m.

Doors for the weigh-ins open at 3 p.m. for the general public.

UFC 152 takes place Sept. 22 at Air Canada Center in Toronto and airs live on pay-per-view, FX and Facebook. The main event is a light heavyweight title fight between champion Jon Jones and Vitor Belfort. In the co-main event, the UFC’s first flyweight champion will be crowned when Joseph Benavidez meets Demetrious Johnson. And in a middleweight contenders bout, Michael Bisping takes on Brian Stann. Plus, fan favorite Matt Hamill returns from a short retirement.

Velasquez in May stopped Antonio “Bigfoot” Silva with a first-round TKO at UFC 146 that earned him a shot at champion Junior Dos Santos, who went on to defeat Frank Mir in the night’s main event for the first defense of his title. Dos Santos beat Velasquez with a quick first-round knockout in November 2011 at UFC on FOX 1 to win the belt.

Velasquez gets his rematch with Dos Santos at UFC 155, which will take place Dec. 29 in Las Vegas as the promotion’s annual year-end show.
